Anxiety Therapists in North Carolina

I know many are facing increased anxiety and major changes in lifestyle during these uncertain times, and I want to make sure you have support. If you are a college student that has unexpectedly been sent home and is now having to adjust to online classes and boundaries with family, a young professional working from home struggling to create work-life balance, or a veterinarian/animal care professional dealing with the chronic stress of a taxing job plus now reduced staff,setting boundaries with the public and risking your health – I want to help you work through the impact this pandemic is having on your life. I enjoy helping young adults (20's-30's ) increase self-acceptance, learn new habits,& create a meaningful life in a nonjudgmental space.  I also have a special interest in working with animal care professionals (veterinarians, vet techs, wildlife rehabilitators, etc) to combat burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, depression, & suicidal thoughts.  I specialize in equine-assisted psychotherapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) & mindfulness skills - all of which can help you make the changes in life you're looking for. Online sessions available. Visit my website or email today to learn more!

Hi. I’m Tinyca Bryan. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. More specifically, I am someone who sparks change in people’s lives. I help individuals, who desire to experience clarity and confidence in their lives, but feel like their reality is one of hopelessness. I provide supportive counseling to these individuals by exploring their history and uncovering patterns that they may not be aware of so that they can begin to move forward, gain more control of their emotions and start living the life they thought to be unattainable.
